Praise for Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard:
Winner of the Betty Trask Award
"Delectable-with this sprightly first novel, Kiran Desai takes her place among the pack of gifted young Indian writers." -Wall Street Journal
"A finely tuned fable that attests to the author's pitch-perfect ear . . . The author delineates [the characters] with such with and bemused affection that they insinuate themselves insidiously in our minds." -Michiko Kakutani, New York Times
"So fresh and funny and delicious that it defies comparison." -The Times (London)
"With remarkably complex characters, unpredictable plot twists and vivid descriptions . . . A spectacularly fresh vision." -Reena Jana, San Francisco Chronicle
"Crackling, witty, sharply visual prose . . . She is a delightfully funny, amiable satirist." -The Atlantic Monthly
"There is so much to admire in this charming book, dainty in its construction but ballasted by real emotion, that to call Desai a young writer of promise would do her a disservice. On this showing she is already a finished article." -The Sunday Telegraph
"A charming, lyrical fable." -Harper's Bazaar
"[Desai's] novel exudes charisma, poetry and joy in language and life. It's a sparkling debut." -Donna Rifkind, The Baltimore Sun
"This is a beguiling novel, fresh and funny and warmhearted." -Roxana Robinson
"Kiran Desai has two remarkable gifts-of comedy and fantasy. Add to this a flair for storytelling and you have the uproarious, whimsical and occasionally stinging Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard." -Bhaswati Chakravorty, The Telegraph Calcutta
"Desai's writing is funny, often hilarious, and richly imaginative." -Globe & Mail
"Desai is a lavish, sharp-eyed fabulist whose send-up of small-town culture cuts to the heart of human perversity." -The New Yorker
"Clearly envisioned and opulently told . . . Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard is as memorable as its title. With it, Desai joins the ranks of Anglo-Indian writers who have energized English literature with their imaginative, complex storytelling." -Tammie Bob, Chicago Tribune
"Lush and intensely imagined. Welcome proof that India's encounter with the English language continues to give birth to new children, endowed with lavish gifts." -Salman Rushdie
"A delicious blend of humor and magic, hilarity and wisdom-and unexpected poetry. Kiran Desai's language will continue to delight you long after the last page." -Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
"With this radiant novel, Kiran Desai parts the waters. Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard evokes a bright, buoyant world, and the warmth and generosity of her writing makes for a joyous debut." -Junot Díaz
"A hullabaloo of a debut from a vibrant, creative imagination." -Gita Mehta
